Topic: Parts found from the Original owner of my 1969 Z/28 (Read 6152 times)

I bought my Z back in 2008, and then sadly soon after the original owner past away. I have formed a good relationship with the son of the original owner, who along with his mom (original owners wife), has provided a lot of great stories about the car and its owner.

Well I got a cryptic email last week from the son, who said he found some original GM boxes with some familiar handwriting (his dads familiar script). So I was super excited except I didn't know what to expect. Well I started getting some pics this week, and although this isn't like finding a JL8 car or something, to find these parts is like Christmas for me. To get the parts along with a note from the original owner, is like a gift from beyond the grave!

Nice to find those! Like you said, may not be rare parts, but valuable to your car (and you) because of the history and origin.On that printed tag, could the '1-79' top right be the date of the tag? (Jan 1979)Still doesn't confirm date the part was produced or sold.....

That is the correct front tag holder for a 69 Camaro with the "C" stamping. The AAC stamping is also another marking but mostly seen on the 67 68 Front Tag Holder. It seems to appear later in the 69 production year again.

Todays finds: The 1969 Camaro reference book, a nice find especially for me because of different notes the owner wrote down on pieces of paper and marked different pages with them. Again not a COPO find , but more notes from beyond the grave about a nice original car and paints a picture of how much pride he had in his 69 Z.
